Default 4.10s in the Snow

So yea my stang is my regular driver right now, and as living in minnesota we got some snow in the winter. A beater isnt an option for me right now, as i really cant afford to insure another car... But yea i do all teh regular stuff like weigh down teh rear so i can get enough traction as possible

So I was wondering, if I got 4.10s in my car, do you think I would have a horrible time driving when there is snow on the road, or would it be not to much of a problem once I get the hang of the new gear?

ive got 3.27s and their hell in the winter, with weight in the back, but to help yourself out if you do get 4.10's, they shouldn't be bad if you get weight over that back axle, and then spend the extra cash to get some steelie rims and some very nice snow tires, and you should be set for the winter, cuz you dont want some nice performance tires helping you to slide all over the palce and you sure as heck dont want your nice msutang rims getting all trashed from the salt and possibly hitting a curb from slidding around
